I got my EAD/ap combo card approved today.

Does that mean they already processed the RFE response I sent? My I-485 status hasn't changed from RFE response review..

What are your thoughts?

Yes.

No one's status ever changes away from "RFE response review." I am not sure why people think they should wait for it to change. The online stuff doesn't work and isn't connected to your case.

Can I start applying for jobs now that my EAD has been approved?

You can always apply for jobs, no permission needed. The issue is that you can't start work without work permission. You'll need the physical EAD to start work, but there is nothing stopping you from applying now. Good luck!

Edit: BTW, no one should ask you for your work status until you get offered a job and fill out paperwork. No one should be checking you for authorization before you are hired. That is illegal.

I didn't know this! Thank you very much Harpa, useful information.
